I am trying to do some folder renaming, but I got stuck....

 

heres what I have:

-I have a folder with a variable number of subfolders. (the number of subfolders change daily)

- all subfolders have a name which consists of two parts, beginning with a three digit number , followed by letters.  for example  

001-apples
002-bananas
003-cucumbers
004-oranges

 

I am looking for a way to rename only the three digit number part randomly so that I it will look like this: 

001-bananas
002-oranges
003-apples
004-cucumbers


the part where i have problems in particular is...   what do i do, if there are 6 subfolders next time the job is running - instead of just 4

 

 

I'd be very happy if someone could help me with this

 

thanks alot : )
